Stephens Flying Under the Radar

While the final five tables of Day 1c of the $600 Kickoff Event were on a 15-minute break, PokerNews chatted with Scott Stephens, a Virginian who frequently grinds the tournaments at Maryland Live! and other casinos in the region.

Stephens hopes to make Day 2 and has already done so in an event at another casino, meaning it is shaping up to be a busy few days of poker for the Virginian.

Day 1c had been rocky for Stephens, who said he "had three bad beats" including flopping a king-high flush and losing to an ace-high flush and flopping a boat and losing to a bigger boat.

His luck turned around later in the evening when he four-bet jammed with pocket kings and doubled up through an opponent with pocket nines.

Though his Hendon Mob shows only $10,410 in live earnings, that number is deceiving.

"I have a few firsts that aren't on there," he told PokerNews, adding that he has no plans of getting it updated. "I like flying under the radar."

We'll keep his secret safe if you do.
